Blue Mountain Community College (BMCC), located in Pendleton, Oregon, is a public institution established in 1962. Nestled in the rural area of northeastern Oregon, BMCC offers students a scenic backdrop typical of the Pacific Northwest and operates additional campuses in Baker City, Milton-Freewater, and Hermiston, as well as education centers within the region. Pendleton, known for its historic charm and the famed Pendleton Round-Up rodeo, lies approximately 215 miles east of Portland, providing a balance of rural tranquility and access to urban amenities. BMCC presents a diverse array of academic programs, with a particular emphasis on agricultural sciences, nursing, and blue-collar training programs such as welding and automotive technology. The college facilitates career and technical education geared towards high-demand fields and offers transfer opportunities to four-year universities. It maintains an open admissions policy, allowing a broad spectrum of students to pursue higher education. While BMCC does not have a residential campus, it provides resources to assist students in finding local housing solutions.
